Chapter XLVII Chapter Whereby the Seat of a Person Is Not Taken From Him in the Netherworld

Chair and Throne of mine, which are coming to me and circling round to me; divine ones!

I am a noble Sāhu(1), grant that I may become one of those who follow the great god.

I am the Son of Maāt, and wrong is what I execrate.

I am the Victorious one.

Note.

1. Sāḥu ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ is not a mummy, as it is sometimes rendered, but a living personality in mummied form.
